"He said he wanted to complain to the emperor. Isn't this a dangerous situation? If the emperor knew about it, not only would he not send someone to investigate, but he would punish him. Just watch."

Qin Yue hummed softly and played with the walnuts in her hand.

"Officials are troublesome. They sue again and again, just like when children fight and their parents give them excuses."

"There is no way. This is an official. There are laws. You can't just do whatever you want. How can you be so comfortable like you?"

"I am either upright or evil. Anyone who offends me will be killed directly, regardless of good or bad."

"Ms. Qin, drunken fragrance liquid?"

"Didn't I give you [-] bottles last time? Why do you want it again?"

"The recent wars at the border have been very damaging, and the soldiers have been seriously injured. There are really not enough."

"Three days later, one hundred thousand bottles! Come get it at this time."

"That's good. Can you sell some fever-reducing medicine by the way?"

"Don't you have one in your shop?"

Ji Mingtang smiled awkwardly: "Not as good as you!"

"How much?"

"How about one hundred thousand pills?"

"roll!"

"Ten thousand?"

"A maximum of a thousand pills for the same thing. I'm a fucking human being, not a god. If you ask me to eat, I have to serve it. Can I do it?"

"I think you can. There's nothing you can't do."

While we were talking, Team Leader Zheng came to the house.

As soon as he entered the room and saw Ji Mingtang, his face straightened immediately, he raised his hand to him, and then said to Qin Yue.

"It's too cold. Work over there has been suspended. I gave the workers a day off and went home to clean up. Why don't I move here and say hello to you."

"Should I report it to the village chief?"

"You are the boss in Shanshui Village now."

"Watch her and stop causing trouble. She is the most annoying."

"If she makes trouble, send someone to beat her up. Beat her a few times and she will become more honest, otherwise nothing will change."

"Why do you want us to discipline her for you?"

"Yes."

Qin Yue was speechless and glanced at Ji Mingtang: "He and his wife moved here. I'm usually very busy. If she makes a fuss, I'll lock her up for a while like Guan Xiang did."

"You speak, and I will naturally obey."

Team Leader Zheng grinned, "That's okay. This will probably make her remember better than beating her."

"Shitou, take him to the warehouse and pick out some food. We just moved here and we lacked everything."

"Hey, thank you, Mrs. Qin."

As soon as Shitou and the two left, Ji Mingtang continued talking.

"The emperor has been drinking that wine and feels good. I would like to order more from you every year."

"Just a small cup a day, how many years will it take to drink a hundred jars?"

"The wine was mine, not for him. It doesn't count."

"Shitan, given to him."

"Holy shit, isn't it? You want money from me, but you give it to him?"

"I have the nerve to open my mouth, but you have the nerve to ask for it from him? In the end, it's not you who gets the money? I save it for you. I'm really stupid."

Ji Mingtang suddenly realized: "That's it. Thank you Madam Qin. Ji will have a meal here at noon. In the afternoon, he will go to various houses to check the property. The secret guard has posted a seal over there."

"I didn't touch or read the ledgers in the secret room. I only took the money."

"how many?"

"10,000+ taels of silver will be distributed to the people. One family will receive 2000 taels of silver, plus five thousand catties of grain."

"It's a lot to give."

"Every family has oppressed the people for a long time, and this is a small amount."

"That shouldn't be it. He is colluding with the prefect. Let me wait until I see those account books."

"Perhaps it's not just the prefect, there may be others, or there may be places where the dirty things are hidden."

"By the way, guess why that woman wanted to kill her man?"

"hatred?"

Ji Mingtang smiled: "Yes, that woman was good-looking, but she was taken home by force. She didn't want to. What's more, they forced her family to death." "I don't think she is a good bird. , he actually framed us that day."

"No matter how painful she is, killing is killing. I will sentence her to five years in prison at my discretion."

"Where are the children?"

"I was just about to talk about this. There were 26 children in total, but only twenty families were found. The families of six children suffered an accident and became homeless."

"Send it here to me. The place at home is big and I need a few people to help take care of it."

"I told them, and they agreed."

"Then bring it to me for a look. If it suits you, keep it. If it doesn't, take it away."

"I can take them anywhere. They look good. They are just eight years old. They have pretty features and are not ugly. They are all quite smart."

"Six, six or six, that's fine too!"

"I'll bring it to you tomorrow morning, just in time for your two women to train you. I think it'll work."

"Okay or not, we have to give them a bite to eat."

Outside, Shitou and Team Leader Zheng left Qin's house carrying two baskets of things each and sent them to his home.

Mrs. Zheng Li was sitting on the Kang at the moment. When she first heard that she wanted to live here, she was very reluctant.

Unable to tolerate it, Team Leader Zheng wrote a letter of divorce directly. The reason was that she had gathered a crowd to make trouble in Shanshui Village and could not live her normal life.

For this reason, not even her natal family could say anything if she divorced her.

When Mrs. Zheng Li saw that he was serious, she immediately surrendered and followed reluctantly.

Today is the third day. She has not been out since she came here.

I was afraid of meeting the villagers and making them laugh.

Leader Zheng said that wherever he goes from now on, he will take her with him. If you dare to leave here privately, stop!
Treat her to death!
No, Shitou came, entered the house, put down his things, and didn't speak to her.

"Brother Zheng, I'm leaving."

"Drink some water before we go?"

"No, I'm going back to cook for my wife. If anything happens from now on, I'll be at home every day."

"Ai, ai"

After Shitou left, Team Leader Zheng rolled his eyes at Mrs. Li.

"Did you see clearly? He is Zhuang Xiucai, Zhuang Shitou, the husband of the Qin family. He is tall, good-looking, handsome, and a man of great fame. He is better than me in every aspect. I am a rough old man, and I have to make a living at the hands of others. I don’t know how jealous you are, you are a fool to go against Madam Qin, even Magistrate Zhao doesn’t dare to offend her, you’d better hurry up and get on with it.”

When she mentioned this, Mrs. Zheng Li wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

I didn't know what was going on at the beginning. I was only thinking about getting along with Mrs. Qin, and I didn't think about anything else at all.

She was too embarrassed to see anyone, but even though he knew this, the old man still insisted on letting her come, deliberately making her look bad.

What should I do? Li frowned worriedly.

As the village chief, Hu Hai naturally knew that Zheng Li was also here.

After the autumn harvest, the fields were planted, and the long-term workers were given paid leave, which made them extremely happy.

Even if they don't work, they still have wages. On the 28th, they are asked to come to Qin's house to receive red envelopes. Where can they get such a good thing?
As soon as Hu Hai had a holiday, he was at ease.

He knew that Bantou Zheng had settled here, and he had handled all the procedures.

As for the Zheng Li family, Hu Hai had already been mentally prepared.

An old woman, in his territory, I don't believe he can't deal with her.

Anyway, Ban Zheng said something, so what else did he care about.

Hu Hai and his wife went to the banker's house in the evening, one chatted with Baorong, and the other drank and chatted with Zhuang Dashan.

"Brother, you are living a really good life now."

"Hehe, I am content in this life, I have children, I can get whatever I want."

"Is your salary enough for your family's expenses?"

"That's enough. My daughter-in-law gave me [-]% of the workshop's bonus. That's enough."

"Hey, [-]% is quite a lot."

"Yes, the betrothal gift she gave Baorong was worth 1 taels of silver. Baorong brought it all back. We will never eat and drink together for the rest of our lives."

Hu Hai took a sip of wine: "I really envy you!"

"Everyone has his or her own destiny. Back then, my family was the poorest in the village. No one wanted to talk to us, so we could only lie on the kang and wait for death."

Hu Hai whispered: "Xiang went to the capital, do you know about this?"

"Shitou told me that he was afraid that she would come back and make trouble, so he sent her away."

"The capital is a good place." (End of chapter)
